Depending on where you are residing, you might be hit by some severe network issues, that we still hope they can (at the least partly) remedy by software updates. So (for the affected regions) getting it does not make it a usable daily driver currently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Right now, issues related to mobile network connectivity are reported from practically all over the world (I heard of: USA, Europe, Asia, Australia), though not by all users. There is no really clear picture yet, but, as F(x)tec acknowledged in their latest update, there may be a correlation with specific LTE bands and there may be a firmware fix at some point ...

I know Volla had issues in the US. As @claude0001 indicated it is not really clear who&what are affected. It seems like it can be related to LTE band 3 and maybe 1, but we do not really know. All we know here is that FxTec at some point said they could not reproduce the issue in the UK, but we have others that have reported it in the UK. So could be a mixture of carrier and region that are affected, Personally my 2019 Pro1 I use as a daily driver has a rather worn keyboard by now, but yet I have not switched to the Pro1X I impatiently bought from Expensys (still hoping to get one from IGG), I work primarily from home, quite close to my carrier's cell tower ("3" in DK). Though I have not had the network issues with my tests, it does not mean that it could not be affected if I tested elsewhere... And I think I will await a software patch and any positive reports on that before I will try to switch to a Pro1X as a daily driver. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jakub 6 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 9 hours ago, Schket said: You can ask..., i did in November 2022. Until now, no refund and no phone... My experience exactly. I didn't want to be a scumbag and didn't buy from Expansys imidiately, even though it was tempting for half the price... But after more than half a year!!! of waiting for it to be shipped, (also produced as I waited a lot longer) - I finally asked them for refund and got it from Expansys like so many others. The very last piece - they delisted it right afterwards... Sorry everyone. When my refund was not comming, I asked them again and apparently they are having difficulties with their bank. So them not being able to ship it for several months, you can guess how long it took Expansys to deliver. Nope, you're wrong. Literally less than 48h. Across the globe. Still cant believe it - DHL service. The inability to ship all the devices in over 6 months, some devices being sold to resellers for half the price before the original orders are fulfilled... I think that everyone with a pair of working eyes and half a brain can see what happened. They ran out of money. Shame they didn't come clear. I bet so many people would pay shipping cost twice isntead of waiting months (and potentially years) for the device they bought. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wish they were going to actually refund the money. I think they are hoping that in 3 months they will have enough new orders to do some refunds. I do appreciate the fact that they are not taking new orders. At least they did that right. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm still waiting for the Pro1 (later changed to Pro1X) I ordered in Sept 2019. (I did manage to get a pre-owned Pro1 early in 2021, though, and I received another Pro1X ordered from Indiegogo in Oct 2020 about half a year ago, which I've been using since then...) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dear f(x)tec, I would like to inform you that some of us have ordered a Pro1 via your website three and a half years ago (November 2019), have since been upgraded to Pro1x and also have been promised a somewhat prioritized delivery compared to the IG backers. It would have been nice not to rub it into our faces that you might or might not have completely forgotten about us, since even the e-mail updates have ceased to come by. Please, get your shit together. Sincerely, a patiently waiting paying customer. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is good news , since you are around this forum allot and a active user Its a way to verify the information that we are getting is truthful or false If you get the device as promised then we , all , most , uuuuh some of us can also look forward to receiving a device I also like this update because it shows they are still working on the problem of shipping devices to their contributors 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

September 2019 here 😉 Of course I can be more relaxed about it than others as I've been happily using a pre-owned Pro1 since February 2021, replaced half a year ago with the Pro1X that I had ordered via Indiegogo in October 2020 (and lately with an Expansys-bought QWERTY Pro1X to replace my QWERTZ phone...). Good news is, they still exist, they are delivering, and chances are that we do get our phones eventually... Edited March 6, 2023 by Rob. S. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's good news for me; it's the exact model I ordered. The bad news? My ID is 1874. No dice on this allotment. It does make me wonder, though: might I (and others who ordered that version) be prioritized in the next contributor batch as well? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We got no real info here, but we do know that many US carriers makes it it hard to do BYOD, so check with you carrier first, or be prepared to look for another carrier. There are some good info in this thread on what various US users have tried. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
